Ean, yes they are a bit pricey, but well worth the final result. Like you said, that you head thru that way, doesn't hurt to stop in and see 1st hand the results of others vehicles.

I no longer live in California, but I would recommend Jake Tomlinson & Company, out of Auburn, Ca. When I lived in California, I sent both my dad and aunts vehicles there. To go along with the vast amount which were referred during my time at Land Rover Rocklin. For years, we would send vehicles to Jake's, even though the Niello company had its own body shop. Might be a bit further than you are wanting, but would not be disappointed in the results.

What kind of shape is the under intake heat shield , if it is in good shape I want it. I also want the rubber coil cover Shipping to 36619 Thanks ken
Hey Ken. I'm on vacation and will be back Jan. 8th. So I can let you know then about the shipping rate. I think the heat shield might have surface rust, but is in good shape. There might be a picture of it, but I'll send new pics when I get back.

Check the exhaust manifold as you put it back on, just to make sure you don't have a crack

Really need someone on the forum who has dealt with the front suspension to speak up, as I have not. I am wondering, as the poly bushings simply fit in the control arm only being spaced by a sleeve, if the fitment needs to be tight for the stock style bushings? You state the new and old bushings slide thru, which should not occur with pressed in style bushings. I the spacing excessive or close enough where you really need to push the bushing thru. On second thought about the polys, it looks like that step up is a lip to keep the control arms centered.
I'm thinking really your cheapest way to move forward would be poly bushings. As you don't know if new stock style will be slightly larger to fit correctly or will be the same and slide thru. Then it is cost prohibitive to go with other control arms.
-
Can you post more pictures? wide view of all the parts removed, close up of others. Much easier to view something, then trying to diagnose by what someone says. Not trying to be an ass, just was frustrating when customers would only state what they think was wrong, but would never ride along with us technicians to better express what they heard or felt.
-
Could you possibly have a brake booster that is leaking brake fluid, getting pulled into the vacuum port that is close to the rear cylinders?
-
The vacuum seems low. You can either smoke the system, to see smoke coming out, showing a vacuum leak. Or you spray carb cleaner at items near number 6, trying to locate a vacuum leak. The engine will some out when consuming the carb cleaner.
-
Do you have any pictures of the spark plugs? Also, pictures of the cam shaft and valve train would be helpful. Possible a cam lobe that has gone bad or maybe a damaged valve guide, that was not installed correctly when you had it rebuilt.
-
Maybe the ECU is commanding #6 more than it should. If you replaced everything and still have the same issue, look at what controls it all and that is the Megasquirt ECU. Look into your files, see if your settings are the same. I have no experience with mega, just being a technician and looking what controls it.

Zcardepot is a little cheaper than MSA, if you go with the early years sending unit. The early is only 2 wire and does not or may not illuminate the low fuel earning lamp, but level will work the same.

It's been two years. is there anything new? The turbo distributors seem to be extinct, and Hoke seems to be defunct. I have a ZX, and I'm trying to keep my power steering and A/C
AEM's EPM provides precise engine position using dual zero-speed optical sensors, which offers the advantage of immediate signal generation regardless of engine speed. The EPM easily adapts to any positive-drive, half-engine speed device such as a cam or distributor drive, and can be used with any aftermarket engine management system that recognizes a 12-tooth crank 1-tooth cam pattern.

If it is top left, those are poly. If it is top right, then they are stock style and need to be pressed in. The item that is having something pressed in or out should not be damaged, if done correctly. So, need to see pictures to tell if they used the wrong die to press out the old bushings and possibly increased the diameter of the control arm opening on accident.
-
There are no new rubber stock bushings, most likely you are using polyurethane bushings with a separate internal sleeve. Is the fitment excessively small or allowing the poly to slide thru by simply placing the bushing in? If you were to use stock style, then you would be having the same shop press new bushings in.
To me, nothing is damaged. Just fit the bushings in and put back on the vehicle. Please provide photos of the bushings and control arms, that way we can give you better answers to help you out.

Did you just disconnect connectors on the amp or did you cut wires to remove the amp? We can't tell you if easy to connect back up and for your issues to go away, because you didn't state how you removed the amp. Providing pictures are always best the more vague questions are. You might have had a 12 volt ignition source that was connected to the amp when the vehicle was in accessory or on position.

Interested in the louvers. Are they the kind that attach to the hatch or the kind that slide under the weatherstripping?
They attach to the hatch, with hinge at the top and latch at the bottom I believe.

Hi ya,
I’m new here. I’m in the process of cleaning up and getting it on the road, my project car a 1989 a31 cefiro. It’s running a s2 rb25det, it has the heater core still under the dash and I’ve been looking around for heater piping diagrams or any idea of which piping I can use to plumb it all in from the engine to heater core. Any advice will be plenty of help!
Well, this is a Datsun Z site. With many using all forms of motors and transmissions and everything else under the sun. If the motors flow the same as the L28, then the rear goes to the inlet or top of the heater core and the other line looping to the front connection.
-
Not the most knowledgeable about Datsuns like some others are here. But I believe the heads for the Z are interchangeable, with same sprocket used from 70-83. The head you took off, the cam retainer plate bolts are loose and let the cam walk. The new head, the cam is retained properly. Are the lobs centered on the old head or are they offset, showing the cam has pushed towards the front? Why are you changing the head?
-
Go back to the link. Look thru the manual for your year until you get to the Body Electrical - Wiper section. It has wiring diagrams, a connection diagram, and what color wires do what. Pages BE-15 to BE-17. The below colors for the wires look the same for the connector at the combo switch. So you need power and ground for the motor to work and the switch connected to low to have it actually operate the wiper motor.
At firewall connector
Blue/Red - Power
Black - Ground
Blue/White - To relay
Blue - Low Speed
Blue/Yellow - High Speed
